Nuclear Science in Texas to Enhance and Advance Mentees

[NuSTEAM @NuSteam]

It is always great to see our undergraduate trainees contributing to publications!

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

New paper! We compare the convergence properties of Taylor vs T'-expansion, when expanding the EoS of several models to finite density. With my student @kahangirw, my colleague @vlvovch, @NuSteam colleague Jorge Muñoz and @NuSteam undergrad Irene Gonzalez https://t.co/77PBtkhLAs

Our summer program started this week! Dr. Ratti gave a broad introduction to the standard model and the strong force. It is a pleasure to welcome our new cohort of students! And today we finish the week with pizza!

Our NuSTEAM students are kicking it out of the park at the Texas APS and AAPT joint meeting!

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

Check out this video by @TAMUPhysAstr! Many @NuSteam PIs and students are featured and talk about their experience being physicists!

Many NuSTEAMers were featured at the #APSDNP2023 today, during Larry May's talk about the MyPhysStory movie presentation. Here PIs Claudia Ratti and Rene Bellwied, and trainees Victoria Delgado and Jeseleth Benavides.

Today we built a cloud chamber and observed radiation from a radioactive source. Thanks @JoaquinGrefa and @qubitpair for making it happen!

[NuSTEAM @NuSteam]

The first week of NuSTEAM/NuPUMAS is over! Pizza lunch is in order!

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

We are excited to welcome the new cohort of @NuSteam and @nu_pumas Students to @UHPhysics today! This morning we started talking about the standard model and elementary particles. Hands-on computing session will follow this afternoon.

[NuSTEAM @NuSteam]

Congratulations to the NuSTEAMers who graduated today @UHPhysics!

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

We had a great time at @FRIBLab, talking about @NuSteam and meeting other PIs and students! My favorite was the Q&A session with the students, in which we talked about neutron stars, the QCD phase diagram, what made me choose Nuclear Physics and how to approach future PhD mentors

[NuSTEAM @NuSteam]

NuSTEAMers are on the road this week! Visiting @FRIBLab and meeting trainees from other programs.

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

We are at @FRIBLab with @NuSteam Students to network with other @doescience nuclear physics traineeships!

[NuSTEAM @NuSteam]

Our NuSTEAM students will hear everything about it this summer!

[UH Physics @UHPhysics]

Physicists from our Department are working on the @ALICEexperiment and were heavily involved in these upgrades! Reach out to Drs. Bellwied, Pinsky and Timmins to learn more! #PhysicsFriday.

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

It was our pleasure to welcome Dr. Paul Gueye from @FRIBLab today at @UHPhysics! He came to hear about our @NuSteam program and gave great advice to us and our students. We look forward to continuing our activities and helping each other to find the best way to support minorities

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

We had such a great time at the joint @tsaapt and Texas @APSphysics meeting at @tamuc with our @NuSteam Students! One my mentees, Alejandro Florez, won the best undergraduate presentation award! Thanks @newtronandon for the impeccable organization!

[NuSTEAM @NuSteam]

Our NuSTEAM students are giving presentations this week at the Texas @APSphysics and @tsaapt joint meeting and also enjoying some activities at @tamuc.

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

After the conference banquet, we visited the @tamuc planetarium and watched a presentation on the Commerce night sky and a show on Black Holes. And also a little rollercoaster simulation that was too close to reality 😵‍💫

[Claudia Ratti @ClaudiaRatti]

Driving to the Texas APS spring meeting in a car full of @NuSteam students! After 2 semester of undergraduate research, it is time for them to present their results. We are going to have a blast!

[NuSTEAM @NuSteam]

Congratulations to our NuSTEAMER Eduardo Dagnino, for receiving the best undergraduate presentation award at the Texas APS meeting!

[NuSTEAM @NuSteam]

Our program was highlighted today in the plenary talk about Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the Hot and Cold QCD town hall meeting!
